Introduction

On the day of the flash marriage, the newlywed husband left Shelley for a business trip. Since it was a marriage of convenience, Shelley thought they would lead separate lives. Unexpectedly, her husband suddenly proposed they should be a real couple. But he didn't give Shelley his door password when she moved to his apartment. Besides, Shelley sent him a message, but he treated it as harassment... Shelley Harper was speechless and thought to herself, "Mr. Layton, you must be kidding me." When Shelley wanted to return to her original position, she suddenly discovered she had growing contact with him. He always showed up when she was in need, like an umbrella holding the sky above her head. Until she was moved by his sincerity and was willing to sign Universe Inc., she found her husband was a wealthy man when she negotiated the contract. And her identity as the design guru's student was about to be exposed... There was also Shelley's family who suddenly appeared, and her elder brother who crazily spoiled her. Shelley's life suddenly became... a little happy, and more than a little!

Chapter 1

Shelley Harper walked out of City Hall with a marriage certificate in her hand.

"Thank you, Mr. Layton!"

Adrian Layton waved his hand and said, "I'm in a hurry to see the client. Where are you going? I can give you a lift if I'm on your way."

Shelley raised her eyebrows, surprised that he had thought about giving her a ride.

She thought Adrian hated her.

After all, three months ago, Shelley incidentally sent him to the hospital when he was in danger. However, three months later, she threatened Adrian to marry her in return for saving his life.

Although Adrian had promised that he could unconditionally do one thing for Shelley, anyone coerced into marrying a stranger should feel disgusted.

"Thank you, but I came here by e-bike. Please go and run your errands." Adrian probably said that out of politeness and gentlemanly upbringing. She would embarrass herself if she agreed.

It was just a marriage of convenience. Shelley was grateful that Adrian was willing to marry her. She would never expect him to treat her like a normal husband did.

Adrian raised his wrist and checked the time. He was running late. "Okay, then I'll see you later. Sorry, I can't keep you company on the first day of the marriage."

Shelley shook her head and said, "It's okay." She had a growing feeling that Adrian was a gentleman.

Adrian nodded and hurried towards an ordinary car parked by the side of the road. When he opened the door, he remembered something and looked up.

He saw Shelley had put on the down coat and rode an e-bike leaving in the opposite direction.

She had left crisply, which made Adrian freeze momentarily!

When Shelley asked him to fulfill his promise and marry her, Adrian thought she must have other plans.

But now, she didn't ask for anything and just left.

"Is she playing hard to get?" thought Adrian.

Adrian slightly pressed his thin lips. Since she was willing to be sensible, he wouldn't get himself in trouble.

But since he had married Shelley, he would fulfill his responsibilities.

The premise was that Adrian wouldn't let her know his true identity.

Adrian withdrew his gaze, opened the door, started the car, and left.

Adrian drove to the next intersection and pulled over the car. He got off and got on a black Maybach ahead.

With the door closed, the driver reported while starting the car, "Mr. Layton, Mrs. Layton seems to know that you and Ms. Harper are married."

"What happened?"

"You left the company for no reason in the morning. Your younger brother noticed it and checked Ms. Harper out. Then he told Mrs. Layton."

Adrian sneered and thought, "He couldn't wait to tell the world that I married an ordinary woman."

"Before Mrs. Layton intervenes, erase all traces related to Shelley. Don't let anyone know about our marriage for the time being."

"Yes, Mr. Layton!"

Adrian tapped on the car window with his thin fingers and said, "Find him something to do so that he won't be too idle."

"Yes," replied the driver, then paused. "Should I send two people to protect Ms. Harper?"

Adrian's eyes suddenly turned cold. He frowned and said, "Okay. Be careful. Don't let her know my identity so she won't have inappropriate thoughts."

Shelley, who was unaware of anything, had come to the hospital by e-bike.

Winter in Sea City came earlier than in other places.

The sea breeze mixed with moisture hit Shelley's face as if it would cool down all the way into her heart.

Having been blown by the winter winds all the way, Shelley tightly wrapped herself in the down jacket. Accompanied by the wind passing through the hall, she stopped at the door of the ICU of the Department of Cerebral Surgery.

Shelley looked at the skinny old lady lying inside with tubes all over his body through the thin glass window, suddenly turning red-rimmed eyes.

She held back her tears and forced a smile.

"Grandma, I'm married."

Shelley took out the marriage certificate and stuck it on the glass window, as if Sienna could see it.

"He's a nice guy. He is tall, thin, handsome, and a gentleman." He was forced to repay his favor, but he said sorry for not being able to accompany her on the first day of the wedding.

"So don't worry. I'm fine. I hope you will be fine too. Please don't give up, even if it's for me. You are my only family. Please don't leave me alone."

Tears rolled down Shelley's cheeks, but she still managed to smile because Sienna said she liked seeing Shelley smile the most.

Shelley talked to Sienna outside for a while and then went to the doctor's office to ask about Sienna's situation.

Sienna's attending was Keith White. Although very young, he was an authority in the brain area. He pushed the frame of his glasses and said, "Mrs. Harper is old and has been so stimulated. It is a miracle that she could be saved.

"Although she has become more and more stable in the past few days, whether she can wake up depends on her own willpower."

Her nails dug into her palm. Shelley nodded and said with red eyes, "Thank you, Doctor White. Please take care of my Grandma. It doesn't matter how expensive the medicine is, as long as my Grandma wakes up. Please keep me informed immediately if anything happens."

Shelley was an abandoned orphan. It was Sienna Harper who picked her up and brought her home. She brought Shelley up and put her through school.

She didn't know what had happened the day Sienna fainted. Shelley only heard from neighbors that someone seemed to have come to the house and had a fierce quarrel with Sienna. After that person left, Sienna fainted.

Keith opened his mouth, wanting to say Sienna was old and had the slimmest chance of waking up, and no matter how expensive the medicine she took, it wouldn't help.

But looking at Shelley, a thin yet strong girl, Keith felt heartache for her and bit back the words in the end.

"Okay. I'll call you in time if anything happens."

When Shelley came out of the hospital, the cold wind suddenly blew on her face.

The gloomy sky weighed on top of her head, as if it would collapse in the next second.

Shelley wiped tears away from her face and walked toward her e-bike. It looked like there was going to be heavy snow.

As soon as she put the key in, her phone suddenly rang.

Shelley took off her gloves and took out her phone from her pocket. She was stunned momentarily when she saw the person who sent the message.

It was a person without remarks, WhatsApp called L, and the profile picture was a dark night sky.

It took Shelley a while to realize who this person was.

It was Adrian, her new husband!

When Shelley left after saving Adrian, he gave her a business card and promised to do one thing for her unconditionally.

After Sienna was stimulated and passed out, the doctor asked Shelley to prepare for her death.

Shelley thought she should at least fulfill Sienna's greatest wish, which was watching Shelley start a family.

Actually, Shelley had thought of many ways, but most people directly refused after learning she had a grandma staying in the ICU.

It was Shelley's desperate choice to find Adrian.

She tentatively added him on WhatsApp and reported her name. Unexpectedly, not only Adrian added her but agreed to help her immediately.

That was the reason why they got married!

L: [Astoria Villas. It's my place. If you are free today, you can move there first.]

[Buy whatever you need. I got a lot going on today and may come home late.]

Adrian even transferred two thousand dollars to her account!

Looking at the messages and the money, Shelley was a little stunned.

Did Adrian want them to live together like a real married couple?
